Sizing Web Search & Search Marketing: Key Stats, Forecasts & Metrics
Search engines have become an increasingly important part of the online experience of American internet users. Of the 94 million American adults that use internet on an average day, nearly 60 million people use a search engine, according to PEW Internet and American Life Project. Americans conducted 6.6 billion searches online in September 2006, up 2% versus August, according to comScore Networks. Some 879 million toolbar searches were conducted in September, accounting for 13% of the total U.S. search market. |
To help size up the growing significance of search and search marketing, we have compiled here a rich compendium of revealing stats, facts, forecasts and metrics.
The total number of web sites has crossed the 100 million milestone, gaining 3.5 million sites last month, according to Netcraft's November survey.
According to estimates, the existing number of web pages on the Internet as of last year was around 200 billion. Even the search giant Google doesn't cover even half of the web as aims to expand their index size to 100 billion web pages .
Most people seem to prefer 2 word phrases in search engines. Of all the search phrases world wide, 28.9% of the people use 2 word phrases, 27.9% use 3 word phrases and 17.1% use 4 word phrases, according to OneStat.com.
Although email is the most popular internet activity tracked in Pew Internet Project work., the use of search engines is growing faster and could edge up on email as a primary internet activity on any given day.

Paid search has outperformed other online marketing tactics in click-through and conversion rates, according to a survey conducted by MarketingSherpa.
A study by iCrossing reveals that most adults who buy online rely on search engines to research their purchases.
- 88% of adults who purchase items online conduct some sort of online research at least sometimes prior to completing their purchase.4
- 67% of U.S. adults who research online before making a purchase decision use search engines as a research tool.4
- 40% of those conducting online research go to search engines first. Nearly equal percentages of respondents who use search engines to research products online use them to find a web site from which to buy (54%) or investigate where to purchase their desired product (53%).4
Another research by iProspect further explores user behavior, revealing that:
- 62% of search engine users click on a search result within the first page of results, and
- 90% of search engine users click on a result within the first three pages of search results.
An October 2004 MarketingSherpa study of b-to-b buyers reports that nearly 64% of b-to-b businesspeople said search engines are the first place they look when they are online researching a major purchase.
Over 70% of all job seekers reported using newspapers and online ads to look for employment, but most job offers of 38.2% are attributed to the Internet search, according to a recent research from The Conference Board.
A recent Compete's study (commissioned by Google!) found that in the second quarter of 2006, search generated 58% more referrals than automotive portals in aggregate to , up from 20% in the first quarter.
New Study by comScore Networks Sponsored by Google Reveals 63% of Search-Related Purchases Occur in Offline Retail Stores, while 25% of searchers purchased an item directly related to their query, and out of those buyers, 37% completed their purchase online.
The study, sponsored by Google, entitled "The Role of Search in Consumer Buying" examined the impact of Web search (excluding comparison shopping sites) on consumers' holiday-related purchases completed online and offline during November and December 2005, across 11 product categories.
Paid search has a slight 9% edge in conversion rates over organic search, according to the WebSideStory Index, a compilation of e-commerce, site search and global Internet user trends.
Search engine marketing was a $5.75 billion industry in 2005 and it will nearly double to $11.1 billion in 2010, according to SEMPO's (Search Engine Marketing Professional Organization) latest industry survey. In 2006, search marketing spending will total about $7.2 billion and increase by 15.3% to $8.3 billion in 2007.
The SEMPO survey found that the bulk of the SEM spending was spent in 2005 on paid placement, accounting for 83% or $4.7 billion. While 4 out of 5 advertisers report they engage in organic search engine optimization (SEO), organic SEO accounted for approximately 11% of overall spending; paid inclusion accounted for just 4% of overall spending; and SEM technologies, including leasing, agency solutions and in-house development, accounted for less than 2% of overall spending.
The paid search industry, which generated an estimated $10 billion globally in 2005, is expected to grow 41% in 2006 and generate more than $14 billion globally, with Google growing its net revenues by more than 58% during the year, according to two research notes released this week by Safa Rashtchy, senior research analyst at Piper Jaffray (Analyst Report via ClickZ).
Over the next five years, Piper Jaffray estimates the paid search industry will grow at a 37% CAGR to more than $33 billion in 2010
In a surprising finding, the SEMPO study found that the majority of search marketers (62%) said branding was the primary objective of search marketing campaigns. Nearly as many, however (60%), said that selling products was a key objective of search marketing.

The search engines are taking on local media, offering a new form of targeted advertising for real estate, automotive, legal and other advertisers. Local online advertising will grow to a $7.7 billion category in 2007, reflecting 31.6% growth over 2006, according to Borrell Associates. Local paid search is approaching $1 billion this year and will jump 86% in 2007 to reach $1.8 billion. Local online ad spending will continue to migrate toward more targeted forms of online advertising such as e-mail and paid search as local paid search category reaches some $4.0 billion in 2010 as the overall local online ad spending surpasses $9 billion mark.
- An estimated 68 million U.S. Internet users performed an Internet Yellow Pages search online in July, according to comScore Networks analysis.
- The global Yellow Pages industry employed more than 73,000 people worldwide in 2004, and generated revenue of US$28.9 billion with the industry market valuation in excess of US$100 billion, according to The Kelsey Group.
- Global local search revenues (Internet Yellow Pages, local search and wireless) will increase 30.5% from $3.4 billion in 2005 to $13 billion in 2010, according to The Kelsey Group.
Worldwide spend on mobile advertising is forecast to rise to $11.35 billion by 2011, up from $871 million this year, according to Informa Telecoms & Media report "Mobile Advertising Services: generating revenue through subsidised content". Infroma forecasts that search-related mobile ad revenue will climb to $1.5 billion in 2011, up from just $3 million this year.
- In September Verizon Wireless debuted its free Get It Now search service, using technology from search startup Medio Systems while Cingular is reportedly working with another mobile search startup, JumpTap, reports IBD. Other startups active in mobile search include 4Info, Promptu and V-Enable. Several startups are also developing voice-based mobile search.
- Portal-backed wireless voice search will reach 1.45 billion queries in 2010, according to The Kelsey Group, representing 18% of total DA call volume in the U.S.
- In the latest sign of growing interest in mobile search, upstart 4Info is expected to announce a $7.5 million funding round from U.S. Ventures
- According to Piper Jaffray, the global mobile search market will generate $11 billion of revenue by 2008. V-ENABLE will be hoping that this technology will put them at the forefront of that market as users and service providers look for new ways to deal with the explosion of content that is now available.
Recently, there's been an increased interest in vertical search engines that are designed around a specific business type or sector. Vertical engines attract people looking for a specific genre of information, unlike traditional search engines that count both consumers and businesspeople among their users.
As the paid search market more than doubles from $2.6 billion in 2004 to $5.5 billion in 2009, that growth will be driven by the "four horsemen" of vertical search, according to a new study by JupiterResearch. The study finds that paid search is densely concentrated within primary categories, or verticals: retail, financial services, travel, and media and entertainment. These "four horsemen" accounted for 79% of $2.6 billion spent on paid search in the U.S. in 2004.
Outsell projects that B2B vertical search revenue will reach $1.0 billion by 2009 as vertical search delivers what big general search engines miss. The market opportunity stems in part from dissatisfaction with horizontal search dominated by Google, Yahoo! and MSN. The average Internet search failure rate is 31.9%. Market trends such as RSS feeds and Web 2.0 Web services are reshaping vertical search.
Information research firm Outline identifies enterprise search players into three categories: pure or augmented enterprise search (Google, Endeca, Vivisimo, Entopia), search suites (Autonomy, Verity, Convera), and search development platforms (FAST, Intelliseek).
Enterprise search is a different animal from Web search. That's a big reason market trackers say search king Google isn't top dog in enterprise search, though Google sells a enterprise search hardware appliance. IBM sells an enterprise search product called OmniFind as part of its WebSphere middleware suite. Oracle released its Secure Enterprise Search 10g product in March.
- IDC estimates the market for enterprise unstructured data management (UDM) to be close to $5.4 billion and growing at 30%, whereas OVUM estimates an $8.8 billion market growing at 33%. Another interesting statistic from IDC is that the top 500 companies spend a whopping $31 billion to search unstructured information. (July 2004)
- Sales of enterprise search systems are expected to rise 25% a year, from nearly $1 billion last year to $2.6 billion in 2010, says Sue Feldman, an analyst with research firm IDC.
IDC says the clear leader in enterprise search is Autonomy which bought rival Verity for $500 million late last year. Fast Search & Transfer of Norway is next, followed by IBM, Google and privately held Endeca, says IDC. Other prominent names in enterprise search include Inxight Software and Vivisimo.
Enterprise search consultant Avi Rappoport estimates more than 100 vendors are involved in enterprise search.
Microsoft's Steve Ballmer said the enterprise search market represents more than $13 billion, and that the software maker has signed up 35 partners to focus on that area.
Coveo Solutions, a Canada based enterprise search start-up has secured $6 million venture capital financing this month.
In "The Search", John Battelle suggests that in the future, search will become even more intuitive and personalized, pointing as an example to GlobalSpec's Engineering Web, which by focusing upon a single domain can already produce stronger, more specific results than Google. He believes there is more innovation to come: "As every engineer in the search field loves to tell you, search is at best 5% solved—we're not even into the double digits of its potential."

98% of retail transactions in PH done in cash
popular .
Virtually all retail financial transactions in the country are being done using cash, creating inefficiencies and leakages in the country's economy, initial findings of a new study being cited by the central bank has shown.
Deputy Governor Nestor Espenilla Jr. of the Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas (BSP) disclosed Wednesday that a recent survey showed that 98 percent of all retail transactions in the country, whether among individuals or among businesses, were done in cash.
"Imagine the lack of transparency that it generates in the economy," Espenilla said, citing initial findings of an unreleased study by the Better Than Cash Alliance.
He said the study, which was presented to BSP officials recently, showed the country lagged far behind countries like South Korea, where as much as 60 percent of all transactions are "digitized" or done using credit cards, debit cards and other electronic platforms.
The Better Than Cash Alliance is a privately funded organization that promotes the increased use of electronic payment platforms like credit cards and mobile phone wallets around the world.
The group was formed in 2002 and was funded initially by the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, the US Agency for International Development (USAID) and multinational firms Visa Inc., Citigroup and Ford.
The prevailing preference for cash over electronic payments in the Philippines comes despite the country's reputation as one of the world's leaders in the creation of innovative applications for the use of electronic platforms.
Espenilla said the use of cash was often a source of leakage, which created problems particularly for tax authorities.
Handling money was also significantly more expensive than processing electronic payments, he said. "From producing it, moving it, guarding it and even destroying it, with cash, it's all cost," Espenilla said. "Digitized money is also [easier to track]. Not only is it more efficient, it's also more transparent… because everything is recorded," he explained.
For instance, the billions of pesos in doleout under the Aquino administration's Conditional Cash Transfer (CCT) program were disbursed using mobile phone wallets with the help of the country's top telecommunication companies.
Last Thursday, dominant carrier Smart Communications and the LandBank of the Philippines launched a new service that would allow CCT beneficiaries to automatically save part of the money they get from the government. Half of this money can then be borrowed and used as capital for the sale of prepaid mobile phone load credits.

| Funny Pictures Site Review
A couple of days ago I got my funny pictures site online . I decided to use a blog format as that seems to be a trend of late with this kind of site. In addition I added social tools, tags, and a search function so people have various ways of finding funny stuff that is of interest to them. Any thoughts? http://funnypictures.co.uk/ (Feedback so far suggests that it doesn't look right in certain browsers. I'll look into that. It's fine in Chrome, the latest version of IE and in Firefox Beta I think.) |
23-11-2010, 11:05:36 PM | #3 (permalink) |
I have blogs on blogger and wordpress and am curious to see how this will fair. I think much of the seo disadvantage of tumblr comes down to people using other people's reblogged content. As I'm not oing to do that, I don't think I'll suffer a disadvantage. If it turns out that I do, I'll transfer it to wordpress, as there are a few tumblr to wordpress conversion tools out there. If/when I get to 10,000 views a day I think it'd be possible to make CMP ads worthwhile (valueclick etc) or maybe google ads will suffice, not sure yet. It achieved around 1000 pageviews yesterday, which isn't bad considering I've only just started working on it. |

The Firefox issue is fixed now (I hope).
24-11-2010, 04:34:19 PM | #7 (permalink) |
I like the domain; has the potential to become a very popular site. Why don't you add categories so your visitors have a choice of what they want to look at, eg. 'Funny Videos', 'Funny Animals', 'Funny Vegetables?!?!'. And you could maybe have the option for visitors to submit funny pictures/videos and every month, you could select what you think is the funniest submission and highlight this on the homepage. This would maybe encourage submissions by other visitors, meaning you don't have to do all the legwork in finding content for the site.
24-11-2010, 07:19:08 PM | #9 (permalink) |
Thanks for your thoughts all. I'll take everything into consideration .

Video: Pro Wrestler Colt Cabana talks WWE, 'Art of Wrestling' podcast, CM Punk and more
November 15, 2011
Whether you're into pro wrestling or you couldn't name a wrestler since Hulk Hogan, you'll find a lot to like about Colt Cabana. The Chicago-based pro indy wrestler (he grew up in Deerfield) is funny, gracious and absolutely passionate about what he does — whether, as he puts it, he's wrestling in front of 6,000 people in an arena or in front of 40 people on a baseball field.
Cabana (real name Scott Colton) talks here about his time in the WWE, his popular Art of Wrestling podcast (think Marc Maron's WTF for the wrestling community), his close friendship with WWE star CM Punk and more.

Body Size and Division of Labor Based on Body Size
The seed-harvesting Messor pergandei is a common ant species in the Southwester United States. They display a monophasic allometry (see Wilson 1953, Oster and Wilson 1978), with a wide range in body size, with a dry body mass of 0.12-3.25mg (Feener and Lighton 1991). Within a colony there are often more smaller individuals than larger individuals (worker distributions skewed right, Lighton et al. Feener 1994).
Published morphological data on this species has used head width (Rissing and Pollock 1984, Waser 1998), mandible length (Davidson 1978) and body mass (Feener and Lighton 1991, Lighton et al. 1994). The motivation for using these measures stems from their ecology as seed-harvesting ants, inferring head width and mandible length play an important role in determining seed size harvested.
Evidence suggests variability of mandible size (correlated to body size) decreases as competition increases (Davdison 1978). However in this species seed size and worker body size is not 'size-matched', in that larger workers do not necessarily carry the largest seeds as foraging theory predicts (Rissing and Pollock 1984, Waser 1998). Although there is some evidence there is task-matching of seed size and worker size over short term periods (hours or days, Waser 1998).
Published Body Size Measurements:
Body length 3.5-8.4mm (Davidson 1978)
Head width 0.8-1.88mm (Rissing and Pollock 1984, Rissing 1987)
Mandible length 0.5-1.05mm (Davidson 1978).
Dry body mass of 0.12-3.25mg (Feener and Lighton 1991)
Live body mass ranging from 1.33-11.03mg (Lighton et al. 1994)

Camocare firms up the lines of time
By Dara Colwell
If, like me, you want your wrinkles to disappear and still be able to chew on a good steak (unlike plastic-surgery icon Cher, whose heart of stone has seemingly immobilized her face), then Camocare's skin-firming system is the way to do it. Available at drug and health food stores, the chamomile-rich cream contains vitamin C, which helps firm the skin while the Camillosan chamomile smooths those "but he never called!" anxiety grooves away.
The use of chamomile dates back 2,000 years to Egypt, where women crushed the petals of the flower to beautify and protect their skin against the desert's harsh weather. Camocare skin-firming lotion, which comes in day and night creams, smells like a good yeasty baked bread--and, of course, spreads more easily. It's a welcome, natural-smelling aroma.
It works like this: Because vitamin C oxidizes on contact with air, water, heat and light, it tends to degrade quickly. Most creams containing vitamin C don't maintain their potency, but Camocare's Ester-C Topical is a stable formula that penetrates deep into the skin. This "proven penetration" (verbatim on their website with, surprisingly, no accompanying porno pictures) encourages firm skin.
Camocare also carries a number of natural skin-care products that work to make fine lines disappear. There are cleansers, toners, a revitalizing mask, eye-therapy creams and moisturizers--all providing antioxidant protection against the visible signs of aging. One of Camocare's active ingredients, alpha liptene, is one of the strongest antioxidants around.
Beauty column or no beauty column, I would have to honestly say the products work wonders. Initially, I didn't believe it. I managed to pass once for 18--no lying or exaggerating involved, at least on my part--and my delight at having smooth, youthful skin remains unsurpassed. And it saves on the face surgery.

If word gets around at Church that you have a gay knee, you might find some people hiding their children from you, but I think most people will express love and support. There are also zombies in the movies I Am Legend and Newsies. |
As long as your gay knee ligament behaves itself, it should be OK. You should stand at F&T meeting and declare publicly "I love my dead gay ligament!" (bonus points for getting the reference) |
It should be noted that you are responsible for your own sins, not your zombie ligament's transgressions… |
queuno (2), I love that line from Heathers. |
We are never taller than when we are on our zombie knees. |
Wow–you have fun colleagues. |
A bigger question than the sexual orientation of your knee ligament would be the gender. Don't you know that you were created as a male or female? And there you go mixing genders. I'd pull your temple recommend if you weren't 100% pure anymore… |
queuno, Ellsworth, and danithew: LOL! It does raise some very tricky doctrinal and policy questions. I mean, if it is a female ligament, it holds the priesthood by virtue of being part of me. On the other hand, does it make me potentially eligible to hold female callings, like RSP or YWP? |
I'd worry more about making sure your zombie ligament has received all of the saving ordinances—no use living a righteous life if your thrust down to hell on account of your heathen knee. btw, based on the generous response from your coworkers, have you thought of announcing any other medical procedures? Just think of the loot you'd score if you got a tooth with a gold crown. |
So when you rise from the dead shall you rise with the new Zombie ligament or the older broken ligament? If the zombie ligament is stronger do you get to choose it? I mean maybe the zombie ligament is from a really strong 23 year old dude. But what if he wants his ligament back? Does your impending godhood in the CK trump his telestial rights to his ligament? Who do you sue and it what venue to get your ligament out of the dude who has it in the CK? St Peter? Moroni? Does Solomon apear in the celestial court and pronounce a severing of the ligament and you each get half? |
As the resident zombie expert of the bloggernacle, I can tell you that pop culture is reaching its zombie saturation point; I predict a precipitous drop-off over the next two years. |
Dude, I saw the way you crossed your legs pre-surgery… so I'm pretty sure your knee was already gay. |
BrianJ: Good point. It's likely that my knee now has none of the saving ordinances. I wonder how I'd go about doing the ordinances? bbell: LOL. Those are excellent questions. I don't know if any theology is equipped to answer them. TOTAL Nathan: I'd like to see some credentials, please. Orwell: And don't think I didn't notice how flirtatious you always were with my knee. |
What kind of gifts might you receive if you get a colonoscopy? |
Tagore: do you keep in mind that the original owner of the ligament is going to get it back in the resurrection? "Hey, thanks for letting me use your ligament for XX years. I appreciate it." "No prob. Glad part of my old physical self was of use to someone while I was in the Spirit World. The rest of me just became worm-food." Hmm, now suppose you're still alive at the 2nd Coming, and you are worthy to survive the day. And suppose the donor qualifies to be resurrected that morning or afternoon. Can the donor get it back while you're still living out your mortal pre-twinkling life? Would you have to suffer your knee to revert to it's pre-surgical state in order for them to get their ligament back? Or would you be miraculously healed in order that you suffered no loss in the transfer of the ligament back to its rightful owner? Since there will be no injuries or sickness in the Millennium, does that mean that all those who survive the day of the 2nd Coming are healed of all their infirmities? I think so. So I'm hoping you get your original knee in its fixed/healed configuration, and the donor gets their parts back. |
bbell, #10. Sorry, I didn't read your comment before posting mine. I think everyone gets their respective parts back. Simultaneous resurrection shouldn't be a problem. The Lord can sort that out. Resurrection of one while the other is still in the grave shouldn't be a problem either. The one in the grave can wait. The main question I see is if the donor resurrects while Tagore is still living in mortality. There's Tagore, rejoicing in the 2nd Coming, and that morning (or afternoon) this guy (or gal) on crutches comes up and taps him on the shoulder and says "Um, hey dude, excuse me, but…" |
Tagore: as you know, the Church frowns upon submitting names for proxy work for people who are not your ancestors. So some good news is that your zombie knee expands your potential list! Maybe your knee is related to someone famous, like Obama's mom or Elvis. As for administering ordinances to your knee, I assume the initial instruction falls in the missionaries' jurisdiction, and they shouldn't have too much trouble finding a member to accompany them on those visits; as you note, zombies are very popular these days. I'm really more concerned about the fellowshipping after baptism: will your knee make friends in the ward, find a suitable calling (nothing too stressful, of course—like ward greeter), etc.? It'd be a real tragedy if your knee went inactive. |
Tagore, if you need proof, check out TOTAL Nathan's blog: |
Boston Police Department: We Will Let You Know When The Zombies Come |
And yet, the Boston Police Department has failed to notify the public at large about Tagore. |
I sense Tagore's ward needs a Ward MissioKNEEary Leader to help convert the new ligaments… |
Bookslinger: I think you're right on. Could be very awkward. BrianJ (17): Interesting idea. So if my knee went inactive, and the rest of my body was active, we'd have a part-member situation. danithew: Thanks for the link; that's good enough for me. Orwell: ROTFLMAO! |
And not to get too personal, but assuming you're married, your spouse could soon be guilty of adultery following any…intimacies. Something to think about—at least until polygamy is reinstated. Bookslinger: I think the way this is worked out is that if you are an organ donor then you get to rise in the earliest resurrection of any of your tissue/organ recipients. At least that's what they told me to get me to check the "donor" box on my driver's license. |
The zombie narrative is very prevalent in western civilization. The zombie is the other that we cannot appropriate, and it tantalizes us endlessly. We want to own the zombie, but it proves elusive: she either eats our brain or she dies; it is always either the humans or the zombies — never both. Thus, the zombie narrative takes the form of a "save the world" showdown. Furthermore, the zombie's ontological status is that of a mutation of humanity that is driven unrestrainedly by appetite, which problematizes the fundamental underpinnings of rationality. Rationality is the hallmark of humanity, and the survival-of-the-fittest contest between humans and zombies leads us to question whether rationality and intellect are actually evolutionary advantages. In essence, the contest asks whether we'd be better off without rationality and intellect, especially when the zombies win, as they do in classic zombie movies like Omega Man (starring none-other-than Moses himself, Charlton Heston). Lastly, the zombie lacks both life and free will, and so there is no moral ambiguity involved in killing her. This leaves us free to vicariously enjoy the violence aimed at them. A 1st person shooter game set in an elementary school is deplorable, but a 1st person shooter game that kills zombie monsters is suitable even for very small children. The growth in popularity of zombie narratives in western civilization is due primarily to actor Bruce Campbell, whose career as an actor has pushed zombies out of the shadows and into the popular imagination. Bruce Campbell has therefore had an unparalleled impact on the development of western civilization. Having killed more zombies than any other actor, living or dead, Bruce Campbell has come to embody the ultimate hero, and the savior of mankind. It is fitting that one of his greatest rolls was that of The King, Elvis Presley. Chuck Norris doesn't stand a chance. |
I wonder if within Mormon theology the zombie would be considered a special/peculair manifestation of spirit prison. My concern for Tagore is that his zombie knee might become a glorified zombie knee in the resurrection … and who knows what havoc that would wreak. |
Bruce Campbell is the greatest. |
DKL: Thank you for the insightful and compelling analysis. I had never thought of Bruce Campbell as a Christ figure or driving force behind the development of western civilization. Indeed it might be said that Bruce Campbell has done more for our salvation save Jesus Christ and Joseph Smith, than anyone else. Our collective failure to better educate our children about his contributions is sure to stand as a severe indictment at the last day. |

My WMR-968 is just about done after 5 years. So I'm looking into replacements. My concern with many weather stations is that the setup keeps all the components together. What I liked about the WMR-968 was that the anemometer could mount on the roof, the thermometer on the side of my shed 75 feet away in the shade, and the rain gauge on my sunroom roof.
If I'm viewing the product correctly, the Vantage Vue is one solid unit, meaning either the anemometer will be sheltered or the thermometer will be in the sun. The Vantage Pro looks similar, but I notice there is a cord for the anemometer which perhaps could reach the roof? Ideally, I'd like the thermometer 4-6 feet off the ground, in the shade, and the anemometer where it will catch some wind. Does the radiation shield work well enough to have it located on the roof or on the north side of the house? If they both must have the sensors kept together, then what advantage does the Pro have over Vue? Also, there are a lot of complaints about needing a data logger. The WMR-968 didn't have a data logger, I just plugged it into an old laptop dedicated to it. Will the same work for both of the Davis stations?

I've seen a few Euro model snow maps on the forums and presented by mets on AW. They seem to be from the pro site. But from where? All I get from the pro site is the liquid equivalent or the white/blue shaded maps on the pro site. Next time I see an example in the forum, I'm asking where, unless someone here can help me.

Not really sure where to post this as its weather related, but not storm related.
A great meteorologist, author and broadcaster passed today. Dr. Mel was an inspiration to many of us amateur and professional weather followers in the State of CT. He started the met program here in Danbury at West Conn and devoted his life to the weather and education of others about how the weather worked. I was lucky to live here and enjoy his weather analysis segment on WLAD, the local station. He usually took 3 or 4 minutes a day to go into details and terminology that you only find here on this site or in the forecast discussion sections of the NWS site. For the weather enthusiasts, we hung on his every word. He became the Chief Met on WTNH (TV) in the 80's and authored 'The Complete Idiot's Guide to the Weather' I believe in 2002 (ish). To say he will be missed is an understatement. Best wishes to his family, friends and fans. Newstimes Report WTNH Report |

Drop-D Presents...
It's called What to Wear,
it has seven really cool songs on it
and it is distributed across Canada by
Turtle Records.
You'll soon hear it spinning at a college radio station near you!
Our demo tape, Rude Like Me, stayed on the charts at CiTR for
seven consecutive months,
so who knows what this CD will bring? We hope for more of the same.
UPDATE: On July 18, we were #46 on the top 50 Canadian College Radio
charts! We've also been charting on stations from Frederiction
to Waterloo to Edmonton to Vancouver and more. Thanks to the stations
and DJs who have been playing What to Wear... and don't forget to
call and request it at your local college station.
If you'd like to get yourself a copy of What to Wear or
Rude Like Me, communicate with us and
we'll see what we can do.
Some audio clips from What to Wear...
"You make a sound like a '74 Dodge Charger in various states
of tuning and idle speed. You even flood it sometimes...
You guys flat out rock, plain and simple."
"This rollicking li'l tactical unit shells out a basic tuneful
punk churn with paint-stripping vocals..."
"Rude Like Me is hard-driving sneering punk rock..."
Here's a picture of us playing live.
We like playing and going to shows. People who don't like live
music suck. You don't want to suck, do you? Go see a show. It's
good for you.
Better yet, come see one of OUR shows...
This is Gisele. She likes dogs, sushi
and bands that kick ass. But don't piss her off, or she'll write
a song about you.
Our address is email@example.com.
That's Gisele's address too. Her last
name is Grignet -- that's Belgian -- and it's pronounced "grin-yay,"
for all you yahoos. She'll share what you write with everyone
(unless you don't want her to), but if you're some kind of bass-playing
or drumming kind of person and feel more comfortable writing to
your own kind you can write directly to Rich (he plays bass, but
is also adept at hitting things) at
the lengthy address of email@example.com. You can't write to
Scott anymore because he slacked off on his e-mail account, but
he's just a drummer and who wants to talk to drummers anyway?
(If you must write to him, send a message to either address and we'll
pass it along.)
If you're some kind of weirdo
and need to snail-mail us something, you can do that at:
Better yet, send us $10 and we'll send you our What to Wear
CD, or send $5 for a copy of the Rude Like Me cassette.
Postage included!
We have a brand new CD!
Take a listen!
Here are some people who like us!
- Discorder
- Chart Magazine
- Darren Kerr, Drop-D Magazine,
November 15, 1996
Live music rules!
Stuff about us!
This is Scott. He also likes bands that
kick ass. He's really keen on graphics too. It's his day job.
We try not to resent him for actually liking his day job.
This is Rich. He's into lizards and biology
and stuff.
This is Me. I'm Terry and I like Star
Trek, cats and my Mac. Microsoft sucks, so there.
If you want to read us yapping, go check out this

We consider general OLG economies under uncertainty, with short maturity assets and with dividend paying assets of infinite maturity and fiat money, and study the optimality properties of equilibria with a sequence of asset markets that are sequentially complete. We provide necessary and sufficient conditions, in terms of asset prices and dividends, for equilibria to be conditionally Pareto optimal. These results provide a theoretical basis for empirical investigation.

Should I buy a Mito? |
conor said 2004-08-20 19:00 |
Hi everyone im turning 17 soon and will bee buying sum sort of new 125, ´not a scooter´ and had my heart set on a mito. I then started reading up on it and have heard many stories about reliability problems and as I will be commuting on it, I am starting to have doubts. Are these just other peoples bad experiences or are all 125 sport bikes that unreliable. I am also worried about its size. I am over six feet tall and look stupid on the honda cbr 125. I am also considering a yamaha dt or a honda xr for their height and wondered what you thought. |

Wright Learning Center
Thu, 01/09/2014 - 11:00pm
Brandon Schoen
Have you ever thought an alternative high school could be such a positive influence? For students that come from different backgrounds, the Wright Learning Center is a great place to enroll.
Wright Learning Center (WLC) is an alternative high school located in the Wright Technical Center in Buffalo. The Learning Center classes are typically smaller that classes in area high schools. Having smaller classes provides a better opportunity to get one-on-one help from a teacher whenever help is needed. A smaller student body provides a friendly atmosphere because students know each other. WLC is a great place to catch up on credits that students missed in classes when they fell behind. The best part of WLC is that students are accepted from many local communities including Annandale, Delano, Maple Lake, Big Lake, Howard Lake, Monticello, Waverly, Winsted, St. Michael and Buffalo. WLC is my favorite high school! Many others feel the same way.
At Wright Learning Center, there are all the core academic classes such as Math, English, Social Studies, and Science. There are also technical classes available for students to explore. Students not only get the traditional high school education, but they also have the chance to get college-level credits in classes such as Welding, Child Care, Cosmetology and many more.
One great feature of the Wright Learning Center is that the teachers are very caring and devote their time to helping students. Their only goal seems to be encouraging students to realize their full capabilities and recover credits. Teachers also want students to have fun while learning. Every class is a great time with the WLC teachers.
For students who may have a hard time in some classes, no worries. There is a tutor, Mrs. Carlson, who is available to help anyone who is struggling or new in WLC. Independent Study is a class offered one day a week. Students work independently on packets in the subjects they need and work at their own pace. There is a teacher, Ms. Clark, available to help you with everything you need. After school programs are also available! There is a Thursday afternoon school from 2:30-3:30 to earn extra credits. Technical classes in the Wright Technical Center offer elective credits, and for dedicated, hard-working students, college credits. There are many great opportunities at the WLC high school.
Wright Learning Center is the best high school choice for alternative students! Small classes, caring teachers, credit recovery programs, and technical classes are all available. Every class is enjoyable and the staff is very supportive in helping students move forward to a higher education. The ability of students to work at their own pace is very helpful in recovering lost credits in a wonderful alternative high school!
If you have fallen behind in high school but want to graduate on time, Wright Learning Center is the place for you. Go to school full time and catch up on missing credits in order to graduate with your home school diploma. Don't wait. Enroll today!

A friend of mine was asking me if I could try to reload some of his 7.62*39 metal cases for him. I had never given it any thought even though I know I probaly can't. Has anyone ever tried this.

By *metal* do you mean steel? Last time I looked brass was considered a metal also To answer your question, no, it's not a good idea to try. Besides, it's probably Berdan primed anyway. |

If the cases are brass, not steel, and assuming that they are BOXER PRIMED (reloadable), no real reason that they couldn't be reloaded. Be careful as to the powder and bullets you use, chack your data, same as you would when reloading any other cartridge. [This message has been edited by alan (edited May 28, 2000).] |

I don't have a definitive answer for you, but I have several reasons I wouldn't want to do it (assuming the primer problem is not an issue).
You would be sizing steel with steel, not very good for the sizing die. And the steel casing may be harder than the steel of the die. Probably not, but who knows. The steel alloy may be chemically changed with the heat process of firing. Unlike the more malleable brass, it could be more brittle after one firing or two or ... A safe load in a brass case may not be so in a steel case since the volumn may be different. You will have to check the volumn of the case to be sure. Most steel cases have a varnish to prevent rusting and to help the chamber seal. That will probably be gone or damaged with the first firing. How long will the reloads last? How will it affect your chamber? (Again, steel on steel.) If you do decide to try it, you should first ask the experts at RCBS, Hornady, Lee, etc. what they think. |

Aside from all the good advice on why it CAN'T be reloaded, here is a reason why it SHOULDN'T.
7.62X39 is so damn cheap to buy, it doesnt make sense to reload it. I mean the steel cased, steel jacketed Russian (or other former bloc countires) stuff. If you're firing it in an AR15 with a 7.62X39 conversion, then I would go with brass cased and copper jacketed ammo in the first place. |

I don't know of anyone reloading steel cases, and most of them are Berdan in any case. I suspect that steel cases would be pretty hard on your dies, though I've never tried them. Personally, I'd skip trying to reload any steel cases.

Steel cases are NOT reloadable -- period.

I'm a huge fan of mini decorated cookies. While the smaller canvas can make for more difficult decorating, there are so many advantages to working on a pint-size scale. The cookie cutters are so much cheaper. You get way more cookies out of a batch. Small cookies are easier to eat. And most importantly, when giving as a gift, many, small cookies are easier to share than a few, large cookies.
That last one was especially my reason for going small with these camping cookies. I sent these to my niece away at camp, assuming she's currently surrounded by cookie-loving peers. Scroll to the end for tips on shipping cookies!
To make these, I just prepared my cookie dough, chilled, rolled out, cut out, baked and let cool. I made my royal icing, tinted with Americolor Soft Gel Pastes (Super Black, Bright White, Egg Yellow, Orange, Chocolate Brown, Leaf Green, Electric Purple and Peach). I prepared disposable decorating bags with couplers and round tips sized 2 and 3, filled with the icing, and tied closed tightly with rubber bands. I let the cookies dry well overnight after decorating, then packaged them each in little cellophane bags tied with ribbon. For tips on finding supplies, click HERE. For basic cookie decorating how-tos, click HERE.
Look how tiny…
To ship cookies, below are some tips. The beauty of decorated cookies is they are the perfect sweet to make ahead and ship.
Let the cookies dry very well first, at least overnight.
Package the cookies individually in cello bags tied with ribbon or closed with tape.
Find the smallest box you can to accommodate all your cookies (this make take some trial and error).
If only shipping a few cookies, layer the bottom of the box with bubble wrap, then arrange the cookies in a single layer. Place popcorn in between the cookies, another layer of bubble wrap, then top with popcorn or crumpled tissue paper tightly.
If shipping many cookies, stack cookies of the same shape and lay on their side on a layer of bubble wrap. Place popcorn in between the stacks, and bubble wrap on the sides of the box. Top with bubble wrap and fill all the gaps with popcorn or crumpled tissue paper.
The key to successful shipping is to seal the box and shake it. You should hear NO MOVEMENT AT ALL in the box. Yes, it should be packed that tightly.
Feel free to share (nicely)!

PLEASE don't reprint any part of the blog post and PLEASE don't post a photo without credit. Thank you!

Ernie Slone Mission Viejo, CA 12/27/2010 7:26:13 AM Thanks Carol. Haven is such a happy boy, especially in the play room. Not all of the Greyhounds I work with are big on toys, but some of them just love to romp, especially if they find toys with squeakers.
Carol Silver Spring, MD 12/22/2010 7:22:34 AM So many toys, so little time! She acts exactly like my greyhound girl. Happy Holidays!
